A-ha‘s American success culminated in their 1986 Grammy nomination in the coveted Best New Artist category, which was eventually won by Sade. “The Sun Always Shines on T.V.” turned out to be A-ha’s last Hot 100 Top 40 single, and to this day in the United States, A-ha is remembered by the general public almost entirely because of the singularly number one hit single, “Take on Me”. As such, the band is frequently considered a one-hit wonder there, despite their two Top 40 hits. In the UK, however, the story was very different: “The Sun Always Shines on TV” was an even bigger hit among British fans than “Take on Me”, peaking at number 1. In the UK, A-ha enjoyed continued success with two more hit singles from the same album—”Train Of Thought” and “Hunting High And Low” (with another innovative video) —and the band remained popular throughout the 1980s and early 1990s.
